Anothjer silly String question

I'm trying to figure out not just a way to do various string manipulations
but the right way as it's pretty basic stuff. Apart from taking substrings
and concatenating them is there a way to remove characters from a string.

 

e.g. I have a string '3.669' and I want to remove the '.'

In a workspace I can type '3.669' replaceAll: $. with: $ and then print it
and it works provided there is nothing after the second $. However in a
method if I put a dot after the last $ as a terminator it takes it as a
character and wants another dot for the terminator. I tried it in a block
and still can't get away without putting a dot after the $. Is there some
way to express this or am I barking up the wrong tree again.

 

Thanks

Bob
